cargo-vex-rt

Cargo command line tool to build and upload vex-rt projects to VEX V5 brains.

run cargo vex-rt in your crate's root to upload the project, or use cargo vex-rt --help for configuration information.

Requirements

This tool requires cargo-binutils and pros-cli to run. These can be installed by running cargo install cargo-binutils and pip install pros-cli.

Installation

To install the tool, run cargo install cargo-vex-rt.

Usage

By default, cargo vex-rt builds and uploads the crates's default binary to slot 1 of the connected V5 brain. Optional arguments are available to customize which target is uploaded and how it appears on the V5.

The cargo prefix is optional and the shorthand vex-rt can be used to provide the same functionality.

Short Long Description
-s N --slot N Specify which slot on the Vex brain to upload to, from 1 to 8 (Default 1).
-n NAME --name NAME Set the program display name on the v5. Defaults to the name of the target binary.
-d --debug Compile with debugging information and disable optimizations. Uploading without this flag builds in release mode.
-r --run Start the program immediately after uploading
--bin NAME or --example NAME Specify a non-default binary target or example module to upload

The command can additionally pass through crate feature arguments (--features. --all-features, & --no-default-features). This information can be viewed at any time by running cargo vex-rt --help.
